Challenges Faced by Finance Teams in Logistics

Your operations never stop. Drivers, depot managers, and contractors handle expenses across locations, yet your claims process is stuck in the office. Paper receipts, disconnected systems and manual approvals leave finance teams chasing paperwork instead of controlling spend.

Challenge 1:

Scattered teams, disconnected reimbursement claims

Finance's Struggle:

Finance wastes hours chasing receipts from drivers, depot staff and subcontractors who are rarely in the same place, or even on the same system.

scattered-teams-1

Challenge 2:

No visibility into transport-related spend

Finance's Struggle:

Costs like fuel, tolls, fines and parking are logged inconsistently, making it hard to track true delivery costs or identify cost spikes.

Challenge 3:

Approval bottlenecks across sites

Finance's Struggle:

Finance teams often chase approvers for sign-off when they're off-site or without desktop access, slowing down the entire process.

Challenge 4:

No control over out-of-policy spend

Finance's Struggle:

With high volumes of claims coming in, it’s difficult for finance to catch noncompliant or unauthorised expenses in time.

Challenge 5:

Margin loss from noncompliant spend

User Struggle:

Untracked or out-of-policy costs quietly chip away at margins, especially when issues are only detected after payment.

Hear from our customers

Expense reporting now takes a fraction of the time. With AI, data entry is minimal and time saved is better used on value-creating work. The system is intuitive, and the Summit team has been helpful in tailoring it to our needs. I’m very satisfied so far and would recommend Summit for managing reimbursements.

 

Sze Shin Lee

Corporate Controller at OCP Asia

Before partnering with Summit, our claims process was a challenge, with inconsistent expense report submissions, duplicate receipt submissions, and a lot of manual data entry.

Summit’s receipt scanning technology has saved us time, reduced errors, and eliminated duplicate claims. Since implementing the system, I’ve received positive feedback from my colleagues.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Summit help logistics companies manage expenses across distributed teams?
Summit allows drivers, depot staff, and contractors to submit expenses directly from the Summit mobile app — from any location, in real time. Finance teams receive submissions instantly rather than waiting for paper receipts to arrive at the office, giving them complete visibility across all routes, hubs, and teams without delay. 
Can field staff and drivers submit receipts without returning to a desktop?
Yes. Summit's mobile app is built for staff who are rarely at a desk. Employees snap a photo of a receipt — for fuel, tolls, parking, or any other expense — and submit it on the spot. Summit AI extracts all details automatically, so there is no manual entry required from the field. 
How does Summit control out-of-policy expenses in logistics operations?
Every claim submitted through Summit is automatically checked against your expense policies before it reaches an approver. Excessive toll charges, unapproved vendors, claims over the spending limit, and duplicate submissions are all flagged in real time — preventing non-compliant spend from being approved and paid. 
Can Summit track transport-related costs like fuel, tolls, and parking separately?
Yes. Expense categories in Summit are fully customisable to match the cost structure of logistics operations. Fuel, tolls, parking, vehicle maintenance, port charges, and any other category can be tracked individually, giving finance a clear view.
How does Summit handle approval workflows when approvers are off-site?
Approvers receive instant notifications through Summit and can review and action claims from any device — desktop or mobile. Because approvals are not tied to a physical location or email chain, claims move through the workflow without bottlenecks, even when approvers are in the field, at a depot, or travelling between sites. 
Does Summit help logistics companies identify cost patterns, such as high fuel spend on specific routes?
Yes. Summit's analytics dashboard allows finance teams to filter spend by budget, driver, or expense category. This makes it straightforward to spot patterns such as consistently high fuel costs on certain routes or frequent fines from specific drivers — turning spend data into actionable operational insights. 
How does Summit reduce month-end admin for logistics finance teams?
Summit reduces month-end closing time by up to 70% by ensuring transactions are captured, categorised, and approved throughout the month — not in a rush at close. Data syncs directly to your accounting software, so reconciliation is largely automatic by the time month-end arrives.
